Penguin gets a designer wet suit

Josh Davis, an assistant trainer at Mystic Aquarium, demonstrates dressing Yellow Pink, a 14-year-old member of the aquarium's African Blackfooted Penguin flock, with a custom wet suit Friday, Jan. 25. While none of the aquarium's penguins are outside today due to the cold, Yellow Pink needs the wet suit even in warmer weather to counteract complications of premature feather loss.
